I feel for you if you missed it, the label did a really nice job with this one. Heavy vinyl and great work on the sleeve too.

One thing I've been wondering about - does anybody know why the artwork was redone? It's almost the same picture but clearly it's a different drawing. Both renditions look good and at a glance you wouldn't even notice the difference.

Got the DLP today. My CD is in storage so I can't compare, but my guess, based on pure speculation, is this:

They didn't have the original art or a high resolution file of it, so instead of being a cheap Moonfog/Back on Black/Etc.-asshole and putting a shitty, blown up, pixellated CD-scan on the LP-cover, they did it over again so it could look good in LP size as well.
